AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 183A of the General Laws to provide that any portion of the common area and facilities for which the declarant has reserved the right to add or withdraw real estate shall be separately assessed and taxed to the declarant or its successor, and the lien for those taxes shall attach to the reserved right but not to the common areas and facilities. The bill also specifies that once the reserved right expires or is otherwise extinguished, the lien for taxes previously assessed on the right shall attach to any units in the condominium submitted to condominium status after the assessment of the right, but not to units against which property taxes were separately assessed in the same fiscal year the interest was assessed.
